A

Accumulation fund:  Is a type of super fund where your account builds up over time, in a similar way when you add money to your bank account. How much your account grows, depends on the number and amount of contributions received, the length of time your super is invested, the fees and costs deducted and the overall investment performance of your chosen Investment Plan. GESB Super and West State Super are examples of accumulation style funds.

Asset Class:  Is a broad category of financial assets that you can invest in. For example, Cash, Fixed Interest Securities, Property, Australian Shares and / or International Shares.

Average Contribution Rate (ACR):  Is the average percentage of your salary you contributed to your Gold State Super account.  (Only applicable to Gold State Super).

Auto Rebalancing:  In GESB Super MY Plan and West State Super MY Plan, you can elect to automatically rebalance your MY Plan investment mix, to ensure the percentage held in each asset class remains the same over time.  You can choose to rebalance your investment mix on a quarterly, half yearly or yearly basis, applied at a set date by GESB.
